Ho modificato il file config in /etc/cron-apt, adesso devo verificare che funzioni, cioè che alle 4 di ogni notte faccia l'update dei depositi security, che nel frattempo ho scorporato dal sources.list principale. Ho utilizzato questo sito: http://blog.pastoutafait.org/billets/Mise-%C3%A0-jour-automatique-avec-Cron-APT Sembra che funzioni bene: oggi, 12 luglio 2012, ho trovato questo nella mail in /var/mail/francesco: Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2012 04:06:25 +0200 From: root To: root@serverhp Subject: CRON-APT completed on serverHP [/etc/cron-apt/config] CRON-APT RUN [/etc/cron-apt/config]: Thu Jul 12 04:00:01 CEST 2012 CRON-APT SLEEP: 382, Thu Jul 12 04:06:23 CEST 2012 CRON-APT ACTION: 0-update CRON-APT LINE: /usr/bin/apt-get update -o quiet=2 CRON-APT ACTION: 3-download CRON-APT LINE: /usr/bin/apt-get autoclean -y Reading package lists...

Il cron-job viene lanciato intorno alle 4 di notte, per default. ---- Dopo aver fatto questa modifica: **Automatiser l'installation des mises à jour** Pour installer automatiquement les mises à jour disponibles, il faut créer un fichier nommé "5-install" dans le répertoire "/etc/cron-apt/action.d/". Ajoutez la ligne suivante dans ce fichier : dist-upgrade -y -o APT::Get::Show-Upgraded=true Et voilà, les mises à jour seront installées automatiquement. Notez que ce comportement n'est pas recommandé sur un serveur ! Il est préférable de faire les mises à jour à la main pour éviter toutes indisponibilités d'un service suite à un problème avec la nouvelles version installée.
